Hi guys, I'm new here!

I'm currently researching getting my first husky, and would like to know of any recommended breeders in the Northeastern US area. I want to be really intentional about where my new family member comes from. I work as a dog trainer and as a dog groomer, so I am well aquainted with the husky needs, but please! Any advice is welcome!

Thank you in advance!

Take a look at this sticky to help you know who is a good breeder when you are asking about their pups.

I don't know any specifics in that area but attending an AKC event such as a show or race will let you see dogs who are being worked and how they are doing at it. That will let you talk to the owners and find out where they got their dog from. Finding dogs that are being SUCCESSFULLY worked is a big step toward finding a breeder who is breeding dogs that are in standard, healthy, and will hold up for what the breed was intended for.
